<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><img height="136" hspace="10" src="http://www.tlaxcala.es/images/auteur_589.jpg" width="101" align="right" border="0" />From Beirut, Chawki Freiha reports* on a provocative editorial that appeared in the Al Quds Al Arabi newspaper on November 3 written by Abdelbari Atwan, the first journalist to have met with Osama bin Laden. Titled “<a href="http://72.14.235.104/translate_c?hl=en&amp;sl=fr&amp;u=http://www.mediarabe.info/spip.php%3Farticle1566&amp;prev=/search%3Fq%3DElections%2Bam%25C3%25A9ricaines%2B:%2Bune%2BIntifada%2Bhistorique%2Bnomm%25C3%25A9e%2BBarack%2BObama%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26channel%3Ds%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26hs%3Dw2g%26sa%3DG&amp;usg=ALkJrhiDPTEGrR8s1fhaz7W5BIJoPCH45w">Obama’s Historic Intifada</a>,” Atwan praises the probable election of Barack Obama to the White House and claims that with Obama installed in Washington, Islam will be able to “impose its point of view” on the world. </p>
<p> As to be expected, Atwan’s editorial decries the Bush administration because it is “controlled by Zionists… whose objective is to destroy the Arab world and Islam.” Displaying true Muslim conspiratorial thinking, Atwan further claims that all Middle Eastern countries have been under the control Israel, even though the Arabs have the “largest wealth” in the world in petrodollars. </p>
